Our Weekend

Our weekend started with an hour long couples massage, it was wonderful!  We went to this elegant European day spa and talk about pure bliss, it was!  HD bought me 3 really pretty nail polishes while we were there.  And let me tell you now if I was a rich woman I would get a massage every week!  After our massage we went out for lunch and then on to the hotel.
I went in to the bathroom to get freshened up and when I came out this is what I found...


For my 30th birthday HD bought me a 2.5 carat forever band.  And had my diamond reset in white gold.  It is absolutely breath taking!  

Did I mention the love letter...  HD wrote me a love letter, it was one of the most touching thing he has ever done, I will cherish my love letter forever!  






Then we went out to this amazing restaurant sushi bar.  I loved getting all dressed up, the best part was having my husband keep his eyes on me all night long, its incredible after 14 years we are still so much in love, I loved each and ever moment of our time together this weekend!




On Sunday we went walking around, we went out to breakfast and spent a great afternoon together.  I hope we don't have to wait to long to be alone like this again.  HD made me feel like a Queen, I never opened one door, he held on to my hand like I would fall if he let go,keeping me close to him every minute, everything was just so romantic and special.  Thank you HD for loving me, Thank you for making me the happiest woman in the world, Thank you for being my hero, my everything, my forever and always!

Happy Birthday Happy Mommy - She's 30!

Hi everyone...it's Twice Blessed Mommy here guest posting in honor of Happy Mommy's 30th (yikes) birthday. Here's a little back story for those of you who don't know~

HM is my niece and we are 14 years apart. I was in the 8th grade when she was born and felt so proud to become an aunt. I was the instant babysitter - me and my friends thought it was a lot of fun taking care of her. Over the years, HM and I became very close and actually, I felt like she was more like my little sister.

She is one of the sweetest persons you could ever meet and anyone who does meet her, wants to become her friend. I count on her for a lot in my life...marriage counselor, mommy guidance and sisterly advise. I know she is the one person in the world who would do anything for me without hesitation. She loves me unconditionally and loves my children with all her heart.

She was there for me standing right by my side the day I got married and she was there for me shortly after my little babies were born 16 weeks early. That really meant a lot to us to have her and HD there in the first few days for support. I don't know what I'd do without her in my life and hopefully will never have to find out.

I love this girl more than words can say and I wanted to tell you all about it on her big day. I've always tried to make sure she knows how special I think she is and how proud I am of her. So, with all that said, I'd like to share a few of her birthday pictures with you.

Here is one of my favorite pictures of her and my dad when she was about 9-10 months old? (I'm not exactly sure because there is no date on the back of the photo). Ok, this one isn't a birthday picture but I liked it anyway.


This next picture was taken on her 8th? (again, no date on back of pic) birthday. If you look real close, you can see me sitting on the couch with my slip showing..nice.

This last picture was taken on her 15th birthday. We were at Marion's Pizza (home of the square pizza) in Dayton, Ohio. She was growing up right before my very eyes. I really love this picture of her.

So, here's to you Happy Mommy....may you have many, many, many more birthdays to come. And just a word of advise ~ If you're freaking out about 30, just wait until 40 rolls around!

I love you! ~ Aunt Twice Blessed Mommy

Daisy did What!

This week has been a whirl wind!  I had the perfect picture all ready for yesterdays fro me to you and I didn't even have 5 minutes to sit down and do it!
We have had colds sweep across the house of Happy again!  I totally emphasize the word AGAIN!  i am so sick of being sick!
I am doped up on cold medicine right now trying to convince myself I am well I am well!  All the while the smell of Vick's on my chest is not the perfume I think HD would prefer for our weekend away!
So guess what my sweet little girl did?  She cut her hair!  Yes she did, no I am not kidding she cut her hair!  I flipped out!  I yelled and ranted and raved and I believe there were tears hers and mine!  I called Ruby Wife who thankfully swept in to save the day!  She said come right over!
We did and my girl has a new do....
She is absolutely beautiful!  I love her hair cut, I don't want to make  a big deal about how beautiful it is or she won't realize just how bad this could have been, but on the other had she is so lovely and it is so stylish I can't stop telling her either.
So drum roll please.....








Here she is, beautiful right!  Have a wonderful Friday and I will be having a great weekend!

A weekend review

I had a very nice, peaceful, relaxing, quite, weekend.  We had pizza on Friday, HD brought it home and that's just as good as him cooking dinner for us actually it's even better, if he would have cooked I would have had a big mess to clean up.
I finished the great book I was telling you all about last week, it was one of the best books I have ever read!  Saturday the boys had a football game.  HD coaches the team that Bo plays on, they lost by one point which is even hard than by 20 by the look on his face.  I have never been as mad as I was at this game (about a game)  Bo got tackled, that's life...  As he got up this big kid much bigger than the average 5 or 6 year old comes up and tackles him again after the whistle was blown and to add insult to injury he kicked my kid!  I was totally outraged, like I am so glad I wasn't sitting with his mama because I don't think I could have invited her to church after I told her what I was thinking.  I hopped up and yelled for the coaches  HD ran to Bo because he had the wind knocked out of him, I then jump up seeing that the referee is doing nothing and he tells me I didn't see it.  I champ went back out and played but still doesn't understand why someone would want to hurt him and why he would tackle him after the whistle was blown, I tried to explain to my innocent son that in life alot of people  cheat, Bo was upset because the team cheated with an illegal play at the end making the winning touch down and I again explained that sometimes it looks like the cheater wins but he never does he is left knowing the victory isn't real, he is let at the end of the day with nothing.
Luke's team also lost their game.  They lost 36 to 6 and as I said before that's better than by 1 point at least to the kids it is.  We came home from football after a quick stop at the book store so that I could buy the last two books in the Twilight series.  When we got home Bo wanted to lay down, did you hear me Bo wanted to lay down so I did what any good mother would do I took his temperature because my children do not ask to lay down, not ever.  He had a fever 101.1, whats up with the rash of sickness going through my family?  I sent Luke and Daisy outside with HD and I settled in to read while Bo rested watching movies.  I read the whole second book New Moon which is my sister Molly's favorite, and rightfully so it was a wonderful book!  
Sunday morning Bo still sick, I stayed home with him and HD took the other kids to church, guess what I did, I read the next book Eclipse, did I mention that they are 600-700 page novels?  Oh and if you have a morel aversion to Vampires the book is also about Werewolves.  I love a good fiction book and they are not scary in the least.  The series has a wonderful romantic twist, and the author is just amazing she is never smutty in the least, never talking foul or even having sexual content because they couple are unmarried, Wow a book with morels after all!  I have read more smut in Redbook magazine than this Series by far!
So today is back to normal life no more book reading marathon, not that I don't want to curl up and read the last book in one setting I do, but education first!  School, laundry, ballet at 2, dinner, football, and all the in between.  Any way I want to make this book last since it is the last one.

Did I tell you all yet that my birthday is one week from today?  It is!  I will be .................  Drum roll please, the big 3-O!  HD and I are going away for the weekend, to this beautiful castle like hotel in the mountains it is just beautiful here see for yourself,



Beautiful isn't it!  I hope you all have a great Monday!  I love the start of a new week even if it is one week from me turning 30.

Please pray for my nephew Tate this morning he is in Detroit having eye surgery, Twice Blessed has explained the whole thing on here blog you can read the details there, but please pray for him, eye surgery is never an uncomplicated issue.
